Domino, WebSphere and why don’t my Friends get it yet

As most people who know me in person can attest to, I usually am not at a loss for words. Some friends of mine actually have made a pact to kill my mouth separately after I die to make sure it goes to rest.  True friends will go to great lengths to take care of [...]

IBM Unknown errors running utilities – United States

Found this one looking through technotes today, really interesting. I often set up servers to run off-line maintenance on dB and often have servers running 32bit Domino on 64bit Windows. I have not yet run into a case where I noticed the additional errors that might pop up but is it good to now that [...]

Background Agents not running or how shortcuts can cost you in Domino

I’ll keep it brief – short cuts will kill you.   I am on a Domino migration project where we are moving the client from 6.5.6 to 8.5.2. We are not upgrading servers but creating a whole new server environment on new virtual servers and will be moving applications over in phases. No mail, they [...]

Domino 8.5.2 HF1 – the fix for the unread synch server crash

I would like to bring your attention to the SPR# RMAA88UAGF – server crashes when clients synchronize unread marks on Domino 8.5.2 servers. I ran into this last week when we had some unexplainable server crashes for apparently no good reason – one of them happened when I was showing a help desk tech how [...]

Blackberry Express for Domino – Finally here

I am not the first one to find this, I actually only noticed after going through my feeds and stumbling on it in Volker Weber’s blog . IT IS FINALLY HERE! We are now officially no longer the unwanted, redheaded stepchildren of RIM – we have our own BES Express server! Go here …   [...]

Domino on Linux: Upgrading to Domino 8.5.2 trouble -> FP are the cluprits

I had been putzing around with my golf swing linux based Domino servers over the weekend. I did run into some issue with upgrading servers but because working my 3/4 pitch swing to the green looked so much more important to me (the weather was GORGEOUS!!) I put it off until later. Fast forward to [...]

Domino 8.5.1 Technote – Fixup can crash your server

I came across this technote yesterday and investigated it right away … – well, I’ll admit it – I asked somebody else in IBM to clarify some items for me and am now plagiarizing that good deed on my blog – THANKS CAROL!! First of all – this only applies to Domino 8.5.1 on Windows, [...]

Domino Crashes – capture data for later support calls and how to treat the notes.ini nice

I came across a technote (1447228 ) that was just updated – I actually have it in my personal knowledge dB where I keep allot of technotes that might be pertinent to the project I am working on at that time. The technote shows how to turn on debugging and the console log so that [...]

Ridding myself of Windows – Google Desktop for Lotus Notes and Linux

Again, research, research – I came across this technote today: IBM – Selecting Actions – Google Desktop for Lotus Notes yields error for Google Desktop plugin on Windows 7. That reminded me of my current struggle of eliminating Windows from my laptop. Quick reminder – I don’t hate Windows, not do I knock is in [...]

Hidden Gems in Domino 8.5.2: Overview of Improvements in DAOS Catalog

Another great find (this tech note just came out today) of some improvements that have found their way into DAOS in 8.5.2. I am really liking DAOS now (I always have, it’s more an increase of  like-iness) . It is so much easier to sell a client on DAOS now as the feature has been [...]
